BHW Silicol®gel is a trusted gastrointestinal health product based on high-grade colloidal silica.
It is formulated to relieve:
Gastrointestinal disorders, including IBS and acid reflux, are often triggered by irritants, toxins and harmful pathogens that affect the digestive system. When these toxic substances disturb the stomach or intestines, they can disrupt normal digestive function, leading to discomfort and a wide range of symptoms.
BHW Silicol®gel works in 4 simple steps:
Step 1
BHW Silicol®gel forms a protective and soothing layer over the lining of the stomach and intestines.
Step 2
BHW Silicol®gel acts “like a magnet” attracting irritants, toxins and pathogens and binds them to the gel.
Step 3
During this process the BHW Silicol®gel particles also adsorb excess acidity and gases.
Step 4
When the stomach empties naturally, the bound molecules are passed through the body.
Ideal for regular daily use at home.
Compact size, perfect for travel or occasional use.
Convenient and hygienic for on-the-go relief.
BHW Silicol®gel is available in three convenient pack sizes to suit different needs and lifestyles.

Published in Gastroenterology Research & Practice, Crawford, Taylor, Young & Hatton, 2023
BHW Silicol®gel is not only trusted by consumers worldwide — it is also backed by strong clinical research. In a published clinical trial (Gastroenterology Research & Practice, 2023), adults with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS-D and IBS-M subtypes) were treated with BHW Silicol®gel for four weeks.
Key results:
• 83.6% of participants achieved a clinically meaningful improvement, with their IBS Severity Score (IBS-SSS) reduced by more than 50 points.
• The mean IBS-SSS score dropped from 323 (Severe IBS) to 160 (Mild IBS), representing a highly significant reduction of 163 points (p<0.001).
• Significant improvements were seen in all core IBS symptoms — diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, and flatulence — with noticeable relief often within the first week of treatment.
• Quality of life ratings improved consistently across the study duration, showing that BHW Silicol®gel not only relieves symptoms but also helps restore wellbeing.
How it works:
BHW Silicol®gel is a clinically proven, MDR-compliant medical device made in Germany. It contains colloidal silicic acid which:
• Forms a protective and soothing coating over the stomach and intestines
• Binds and removes irritants, toxins, pathogens, excess acid, and gases
• Provides effective relief from acid reflux, heartburn, nausea, IBS symptoms, and digestive discomfort
Why it matters:
Backed by robust clinical data, BHW Silicol®gel offers safe, natural, and effective gastrointestinal relief. It is available in three convenient formats — 500 ml bottle, 200 ml bottle, and 12 × 15 ml sachet box — making it easy to integrate into daily routines.
Conducted by CPS Research, Glasgow, UK – Published 2023 in Gastroenterology Research & Practice
BHW Silicol®gel has also been evaluated in an independent, post-marketing clinical trial at CPS Research in Glasgow, further confirming its benefits for adults with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS-D and IBS-M subtypes). Participants were treated with BHW Silicol®gel for four weeks under real-world conditions.
Key results:
• 83.6% of participants achieved a clinically meaningful improvement (IBS-SSS reduction >50 points).
• The mean IBS Severity Score dropped from 323 (Severe IBS) to 160 (Mild IBS), a highly significant reduction (p<0.001).
• Substantial improvements were seen in diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, and flatulence, with many participants reporting relief as early as week 1–2.
• Quality of life scores improved consistently across the study, showing better symptom control, fewer bowel motions per day, and reduced urgency.
• BHW Silicol®gel was well tolerated and safe, with only mild, expected gastrointestinal effects reported.
Why it matters:
This study supports BHW Silicol®gel as an effective, clinically proven, MDR-compliant medical device for IBS relief, offering a natural, safe, and non-pharmacological treatment option. Together with other clinical research, it demonstrates that BHW Silicol®gel can provide fast and reliable relief from IBS-D and IBS-M symptoms, improving daily life and wellbeing.
